For hot melt adhesives, they are valued for providing a perfect balance between
adhesion and cohesion. The optimized Licocene viscosity profile in particular achieves desired properties even at low processing temperatures.
Ghosh and Sengupta [20] presented a formulation to evaluate seismic active earth pressure including the influence of both
adhesion and cohesion for a nonvertical retaining wall.
Adhesives formulated with Vinnapas XD 05 are said to have very good
adhesion and cohesion, a high setting speed and good machine processability.
Other forces, called
adhesion and cohesion, work against gravity to hold water in the soil.
The modifiers are used as antisettling agents to extend storage and application time of paint materials; they can increase the substrate and interlayer
adhesion and cohesion, prevent corrosion, provide color retention, and maintain many other properties with a long life time.
